Was searching for some info on HGTV’s show: Man Land that we were filmed for a year ago, and came across the following video…
so an intro exists… a good sign that the show will be aired.
To give credit where credit is due, that intro was made by Craig Stouffer (a.k.a. Mr. BANDITO) from lostproject.net .
He has done some amazing work and I’m sure you’d recognize some of it if you watch his showreel 2007
Man Land alumni unite!
I have been contacted by some other people that have also been filmed for the HGTV show "Man Land" so I decided to put together a directory of sorts of all the Man Rooms that were filmed.
:: posted in order of original filming date ::
The Man Cave (It’s not just a garage) Where Women are not only welcome, they are strongly encouraged (they just don’t have decorating authority)
The Man Room A sanctuary from the excessive levels of estrogen in the rest of the house. Xbox arena, home theater, climbing wall, home office, etc.
K2 Lounge 
The Blue PigThe Blue Pig includes a stage for his band "the Other White Meat", bar, pool table, tiki bar. Now THAT is an impressive guitar collection.
Well, I finally did it. I finally realized my life long dream of being on a segment of a reality design show on HGTV.
Alright, I admit it, my real life long dream was to own an ice machine, but now I can say that I have been on TV. Well, not actually been on TV yet, but filmed for a show that will be on TV.
Let’s start from the beginning. There is going to be a new show premiering next fall on HGTV called Man Land. A researcher from the show saw photos on this site and contacted me. Long story short, they decided to come out and shoot my basement for a segment on the show.
They showed up and we did the shoot. It was quite an experience. A little glimpse into the magic of Hollywood. From what I can tell this magic is mostly created by doing things repeatedly, but from different camera angles.
They filmed for about 10 hours or so, and they said that all gets edited down to 7 minutes of TV time. So we’ll see how many of my witty comments get left in and don’t end up on the cutting room floor. They did a shot of my dogs, a stafford and a bulldog, playing poker with the host, so now there is a pool going as to who gets more airtime, me or my dogs.
We didn’t get paid or get any prizes for doing the show. The thrill of being on television and bringing entertainment and joy to millions of home viewers was payment enough for me. They did get me to promise on camera that I will next start to remodel the bathroom, so in a sense, my wife won a prize.
I did get a framed picture of the Man Land logo that I got to hang on my wall. The only way to get one of these things is to be on the show and be inducted into the “Man Land Nation”. That, or wait a few months when they start showing up on eBay. I think I’ll hold on to mine.
